I don't remember having chicken pox since I was about 8 months old at the time, and have a scar on my forehead as the only proof.
But you think it's bad just to HAVE it? Picture this: 7 children between the ages of 8 months and 8 years (4 of which were myself and my twin brother and 2 other twin brothers who were only 18 months older). When I got chicken pox, 5 other of my siblings got chicken pox. So my poor mom was dealing with a seven year old, a five year old, 2 toddlers, and 2 infants, all with chicken pox, all at the same time. While my dad dissapeared to go sailing.
So ya it sux having it, but I'd imaginge it really sux taking care of 6 children who have.
